Producers of Video, DVD, CD, interactive CD-Rom & Computer Based Training.
Established in 1987 mhP provides creative and technical support to companies who need to communicate with their employees, suppliers, shareholders or dealers in a marketing, sales or training environment.
We have been working with multi-national and Times 100 companies for over 20 years which allows us to bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to new clients.
In addition to video production, DVD production, CD-Rom authoring and multimedia presentations, we also provide associated standalone services including conversions, transfers, editing, updating, upgrading and re-purposing of all audio-visual delivery media. We also offer a full web site design service which includes an updating and maintenance programme with deferred payments for new and small businesses which is supported by domain registration and dedicated hosting.

Not all companies have prestigeous buildings, but that doesn't mean a Corporate Video or Corporate DVD can't raise your company's profile and instill confidence with employees, suppliers, customers and shareholders. Corporate video programmes have been around since video production was affordable and, with the falling costs of post production, even the smallest of companies can now afford to promote themselves with the panache that used to be the domain of the multi-nationals We can provide all the necessary shooting and filming facilities that may be required followed by digital editing and finally your choice of DVD burning or CD burning of your final programme; and if your programme is going overseas we can handle the standards conversion or encoding to web video.
Your marketing and training collateral are valueable assets but they cease to hold their value once they become outdated. We specialise in updating existing programmes, returning them to you on either DVD or CD-Rom and giving them a brand new lease of life.
This image was carefully chosen to illustrate Product Promotional Video or DVD because, due to its size and complexity it's impossible to work out what it is and what it does, and that's where a video/dvd is perfect to demonstrate this highly complex robot. Now, whilst you may not be in the robotic industry or even provide a product that's difficult to demonstrate, but with the trading borders falling and the internet paving the way to sell to all corners of the world, can you afford not to have a programme to demonstrate your product or service?
The Audio CD has a role to play in business where the sales or service force operate remotely from base. With staff spending large amounts of time on the road the audio CD has a role to play in delivering updated product information or maintenance procedures. Staff can't read whilst driving but then can listen to a CD.
Re-purposing is the buzzword used when converting a programme designed for delivery via one medium to another. For example: a corporate video originally produced for distribution on video tape might be repurposed with chapters onto DVD or perhaps re-sized and compressed for streaming on the internet. Other re-purposing might be conversion to avi, mpeg, or for use in a PowerPoint or Flash presentation.
Manuals and catalogues can be produced and updated more cost effectively on CD-Rom. More complex matters can be explained using exploded and/or animated graphics or video and when an item is added, replaced or updated you don't need reprint an expensive brochure or document.
Programmes are being produced all over the world for use in other countries and whilst language is a consideration, localisation is often overlooked. For example. Whilst Americans like to hear a traditional "BBC" accent, the English don't tend to respond well to some American accents and the French are not tolerant of any voice that is not perfect French. Several versions of Spanish are spoken around the world, all slightly different with differing words and meanings. If your programme is designed to sell a product or service you need to ensure that the language is correct than that the voice will be acceptable to the recipient.
In certain circumstances Product Demonstrations are almost impossible. Demonstrating the hill climbing ability of a tractor would be impossible in central London as would the capabilities of an ocean going yacht. Selling is hard work whatever your product or service but with the right tools it can be a lot easier. A DVD or CD-Rom which demonstrates your product can make the sale for you; now, where do I sign?
Instructing a mixed ability class is a nightmare; the bright ones get bored whilst the others struggle to keep up. We specialise in converting classroom training to computer based and believe me, the process is simple and doesn't require the trainer to sit down and write a script. Contact us for further details.
Many companies have video tapes containing valuable material which could be used elsewhere if only it was in a different format. We can convert existing programmes to CBT from any other format or media.
If your company runs incentives then a video/DVD is an ideal way to kick-start the programme. The video clip can then be used at the annual conference or mailed out to the employees (or even their partners!) to generate enthusiasm. At the end of the incentive we can supply you with a small camera so you can film the event and use it to show those who didn't make the trip, what a great time they missed and encourage them to try harder next time.
Even if you don't want your old VHS, Betacam or MII tapes turning into CBT they may well find a new lease of life once converted to DVD and more easily viewed and available. Remember that clips can be lifted out of old programmes and used in new productions.
There is nothing to beat computer based distance learning. The information is consistent, the students learn at their own pace and the training is delivered in a timely manner, in the local language anywhere in the world. Our training programmes are complete with random validation and generate a unique pass code on sucessful completion. And, if that's not enough, it's been discovered that when the training is supplied on CD-Rom, staff take the disk home and complete the training in their own time!
Will your CD-Roms play on any computer?
Yes. All our programmes need is a Windows Operating System from Windows '95 or Windows NT right through to Windows XP.
We get a lot of CD's through the post that we can't run because they need to be installed and our I.T. department won't let us do that; they say the disk might contain a virus or spyware.
Our CD-Roms run from the CD itself and do not need to install anything onto the host computer and are therefore completely safe.
